Core Aeration Updates

Latest Update

UPDATED FRIDAY, MAY 9

C N’R offers 2-rounds of Core Aeration each season. One time in the spring (May/June) & one time in the fall (September/October). With all the clay common in the Twin Cities metro, shaking up your soil is essential at least 1x per season, but we recommend 2x each year.

The benefits of core aeration include getting air, moisture, and fertilizer directly to the root zone. Also, compacted soils are tough to achieve full grass growth and health. Breaking up the soil is a very good thing to do 2x per season.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are signed up for Core Aeration Service, you will be EMAILED a letter about 5-8 days in advance of your scheduled aeration week. We will NOT be sending this letter through the US MAIL anymore.

CURRENT UPDATE: Our first week of Core Aeration will take place during the week of May 12th. All scheduled customers were emailed on May 5th. If there becomes any delay in our schedule, we will email all customers affected by the delay. Core Aeration Service will last well into June.

If you have further questions, please EMAIL CRAIG.

As said above, the “spring” portion of our service does not start until mid-May-ish each season. At the time of this update on 4/13, we still do not have plans for this service, but we would assume it will get going maybe the week of May 12th or May 19th - somewhere in there.
